has a water works system fife own which
supplies what is Necessary for steam, wash
ing, etc. To accomplish this pipe extends
from the brewery. under The Illinois track

pump used is new one. The engineer yes
telday noticed that it seemed TO be pumping
wind Thinking there was leak in the
lake pipe, it was brought to the surface but
was apparently sound. There was mud on
the straincr and this was thought strange, as
it was supposed the bottom Of the lake was
sandy. Again the pump was started, but it
failed o bring up water. Then sn exami
nation of the pump was made and when
one OF the valves was removed slight ex-
plosion took place. The engineer brought
lighted candle in, the better to examine
the pump, when as the flame approached
the valve pillar Of fame burst forth, buru-
ed for a few minutes and then went out. A
one and one half inch pipe |as inserted in
The five inch one, and three quarter open
ing made in the end of the smaller pipe
From this for over twenty four hours, a
